Manhattan: Wall Street - Pearl Street

1872-1880

Manhattan: Wall Street - Pearl Street

Wall Street, west from Pearl Street, to Broadway, showing an early view of Manhattan's financial center. Trinity Church at the furthest point dominates this locale. Intersections observable at the left are, Hanover, William and Broad Streets. Note the ornate Drexel Morgan Bldg. at the latter point. This feature erected in 1872 when taken in conjunction with the absence of the National Bank of the Republic (1880) at Broadway, dates this scene. Between 1872-80 Gift of Urbrock Collection
